The Times reports Bishop may have been working on a "herpes bomb" when she was denied tenure. Jay Fitzgerald concludes the real problem in this case was that:

Adam Reilly surveys reaction to the Herald's shocking revelation that Amy Bishop played Dungeons and Dragons as a teen, just like Mucko McDermott and, um, Curt Schilling. He awaits the Herald's discovery of a third murderous D&D player, because as any ink-stained wretch knows, it's not officially a trend without three examples.
